We have compiled for you a list of the most pressing questions about pregnancy, which arise not only among young girls, but also among adult women. Our body is an incredibly complex mechanism, and it is necessary to know how our body works.
Can I get pregnant during my period?
First, you cannot be 100% sure that bleeding is the beginning of your period. You may also start bleeding during ovulation, when you are most fertile. On average, a woman's cycle is 28 to 30 days, which means that ovulation will not occur until a few days after her period, but for women with shorter or longer cycles, this interval may be different. In addition, sperm can remain inside a woman for up to 72 hours, being active. Remember that it is impossible to accurately predict the date of ovulation, it can only be seen with the help of ultrasound, so if you are not ready to become a mother, do not risk it.
Can you get pregnant while breastfeeding?
Another interesting question, to which we will answer this: breastfeeding can indeed become a temporary method of contraception, but for this method to be reliable, many conditions must be met. this form of birth control has a name of its own: lactational amenorrhea birth control (LAM). The baby should be entirely breastfed, that is, there should be no formula in his diet. The baby should be fed on request, at least every 4 hours during the day and every 6 hours at night. It is to feed, not to express! In addition, your period should not start, and the baby should be under six months. As you can see, there are many chances that something will go wrong, so it's better to go back to the good old condom.
Is it possible to get pregnant in the pool?
Yes. If you have unprotected sex in the pool, the water will not wash the sperm out of your body and you can easily get pregnant. If the question is, can you get pregnant if someone ejaculated in the pool, then no, this is impossible. Sperm are excellent swimmers, of course, but only when they are inside the body.
Can you get pregnant on birth control?
Again, the answer is yes. Can. The birth control pill is 99 percent effective with “perfect use,” which means you take the pill at the same time every day without missing a dose. But few women are so disciplined. "Typical use" is how most women take the pill and is then about 91% effective. Both combined oral contraceptives and progestogen-only pills (also known as mini-pills) are usually ineffective in 9% of cases. It is important to take the pills at the same time to maintain a constant level of hormones in the body.
